A smattering of Green Bay Packers fans said they have no beef with the team offering standing-room-only tickets, even if the $75 price raised a few eyebrows.

The team announced earlier this week is was making a limited number of the tickets available for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears and the Nov. 16 game against the Eagles.

SRO tickets for both games sold out, according to the Packers' website.

"I think its a great idea. If they would have kept them under $75, it would have been a much better idea," said Mark Einsweiler, a Packers fan from Galena, Ill. "I'd buy them for $75. They sold out immediately online."

Garrett Hahn, also of Galena, pointed to the NHL's Chicago Blackhawks and other teams that offer similar tickets.

"Why not?" he said.

Einsweiler and Hahn were part of a group hanging out around the open rear door of a sport utility vehicle in the Lambeau Field lot before Sunday night's game against the Bears.

The standing area is located behind section 434S, a section high above the southwest corner of the south end zone, where standard seats are $100. Viewing platforms on either side of the seating section also are open to fans.

Michael Coleman of De Pere, said at $75, he's unlikely to opt for standing-room only, but sees the opportunity they present to fans who may not have access to tickets.

"For some people that don't get to go all the time, it'd probably be fun," said Coleman, who frequently goes to games on season tickets.

The Packers said the standing-room-only tickets are being offered for the two games on a trial basis.

"We'll review the experience and then determine if we'll offer these tickets for other high-demand games in the future," Mark Wagner, the Packers' director of ticket operations, said in a press release on Wednesday .
